Located in the heart of the Patagonian pampas, in Argentina's Chubut province, Piedra Parada's monolith rises up from the surrounding desert. Lying just to the north, the majestic La Buitrera Canyon was home to the Petzl RocTrip in November 2012. For more than a week, climbers from all over the world came together to share a common passion: climbing. Thanks to the hard work of a team of Argentinean and international route developers, La Buitrera Canyon, 5 km long with towering cliffs up to 200m high, is now one of Argentina's major climbing spots. For the tenth edition of the Petzl RocTrip, more than 1500 people climbed in the wind, dust, heat, and cold, for an unforgettable Patagonian experience!

Finding and bolting an undeveloped climbing paradise with endless virgin walls on perfect limestone.
This is a dream many climbers may secretly nourish. But is this still possible after decades of world- wide expansion of sport climbing with new routes popping up everywhere around the globe?

Well, it is...

In Montenegro, a small country in south-eastern Europe an Austrian group of climbing and bolting enthusiasts found their own little paradise.
In 2018, with the help of the small local community they set the first bolts. With over a hundred new routes and still counting the process has just started.

This video tries to show the dedication, passion and hard work they put in the development of what might become one of Europe’s best climbing areas.

Arena is situated near Graz and in the 80s Austrian climbing history was written there.

At this spot you can find the route „Zeitgeist“ which was probably the first of the grade 10- in Austria and the routes in the 10 grade at Hintere Arena are amongst the first of this grade in Europe.

PHALLUS DEI

"Phallus Dei" is a very steep impressive line, with very varying, continuously long moves and a very exceptional move at the end.

VAGINA DIABOLI

Another super-classic route besides "Phallus Dei" which I did last autumn, is "Vagina Diaboli", also graded with 10 and in my opinion very hard for the grade.
The route is for sure one of the coolest lines at Arena, it goes alongside the whole steep edge. It has a very athletic boulder but also a high technical demand with a tricky mantle before the chain.

The route was opened by Robert Kerneza in 1987 and as far as I know Wali Anderle and I were the first Ladies to send the route.
And now it’s time for more girl’s ascents!
